Attempted Home Invasion, Vehicle Stolen From Dealership in Bloomfield Township
A drive-off at Dick Scott and a damaged window during an apparent burglary were among recent police reports.
Officers with the Bloomfield Township Police Department investigated an attempted home invasion in the 3000 block of Shallowbrook last week, reports said.Â
The homeowner told police that someone removed a screen from a window and smashed the glass sometime on Nov. 22. Investigators determined no one entered the house and nothing was reported stolen, reports said. A K-9 unit tracked a scent for a short distance, but did not locate a suspect. No suspect information was available and the investigation is ongoing.Â
Drive-off at Dick Scott
A man pretending to be a customer drove off with a used vehicle from the Dick Scott Automotive Group last week. An employee called police and said a man entered the business to test drive a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee on Nov. 21 Â but never returned with the vehicle, according to reports.Â
The employee did get a copy of the man's driver's license, and investigators are trying to locate him, officials said.
Anyone with information about either incident is encouraged to call the department at 248-433-7752.
